that several of the old men have outlived their
usefulness in this city and men who can play
better ball should be secured"
Elmer Foster the center fielder and heavy
hitter of the Minneapolis club, is thought to be
the greatest catch of the season, and there is a
great scramble for him. During the past week
agents from nearly every league and associa-
ton have been to Minneapolis secure this
player for next season.
Manager Phillips has expressed his opinion

In regard to Manager Foeers negotiations
with the Washington club, correspondent from
that city writes: IF Foesl can get Paul Hines
and Whitney he wouldnt mind selling frank
Gardner and Shomberg, but Gasscock-oh. no.
Rumor has it that he has convinced some of the
powers that be of Gardeners great qualifications
as captain. and that he is just the man Wash
lpgton is looking for. AS Indianapolis has been
about as badly off for field captain this season
as any club in the business. and has tried Den
ny, Gasscock and Shomberg with hut indiffer-
ent results, it appears to be a great act of self
sacrifice to bestow the Washington club the
first real specimen of genius in that line which
they have struck. Nothing definite be
learned about she result of the negotiations. but
IL will take much bigger man than Gardner to
satisfy the baseball public Of Washington for
the loss of Hines. Gasscock would be accepted
as fair exchange, but anything else will raise

The Cost of the Presidents Journey.
Washington Special
hear good deal or quiet gossip about the
expenses of the Presidents journey and many
speculations to who will bear them. The
estimates of cost vary widely, but none of them
seem very low. An experienced railroad man
whose opinion l asked recently thought that the
actual expenses OF the trip, exclusive OF the
public and private entertainment of the Presi
dent and his party at various places, would not
fall short Of ST, 000 and might amount to 49, 600.
1t is said by some or Mr.. Clevelands friends
that he personally bears all the expenses Of the
trip, and that he is careful not
to place himself under any obligations to the
railroad companies. Others explain that the
leading Western and Southern towns which b
visits invitation OF their citizens will pay all
the expenses of the journey. My railroad friend
was of the opinion that by rather elastic con-
struction of the inters tate law the burden OF
expense would be materially liehtened, no mat
ter who should be required to bear it. He re-
ferred to that provision of the law which re-
quires uniformity of rates for the carriage of
passengers under su Substantially similar cireum-
stances and conditions which he thought in a
pinch might be made to apply to the passengers
themselves as well as to the conditions and cir
cumstances of their transportation. In fact he
did not seem to believe that the cost of the
journey will prove a very heavy drain on Mr..
Clevelands pocket

THE COMING AGRICULTURAL AND NOR
TlCOlTuRAl SHOW,

The Royal Hawaiian Agricultural
Society has decided to hold its an
nual show for the present year dur
ing the first week in May-about
two months from the present time
which allows sufficient time for pre-
paration, and yet none to let pass
nnimproved. The place determined
upon for holding the show, is the
Government Nursery, on King street,
towards Waikiki. This, although
not so near the centre of population
as desirable, is within reachable dis
tance, and is, for this reason, greatly
preferable to Kapiolani Park. The
cost of a carriage to the Nursery is
within the means of most people,
and for those who prefer to walk
aud save the money, the distance is
comparatively short. The Society
has arranged short yet comprehen-
sive programme, which probably
omits nothing Of note that the coun-
try produces, either in the vegetable
kingdom or in the line of manufac-
lures, and embraces so many articles
of a comparatively insignificant char
acter, of both general classifica-
tions just named, that almost every
man, woman, and even child of
eight or ten years Of age in Homo
lulu might become an exhibitor.
This is feature of the published
programme which invites particular
attention, and should encourage
ladies and young people, of whom
there are so many who have their
pretty little flower plots, to come
forward as exhibitors. The exhibits
are classified in the programme
under five general divisions-Horti-
culture, Agriculture, Dairy Produce,
Domestic Manufactures and Poultry
and Birds-and under each division
the particular articles specified, with
the added note, that "prizes will
also be given for meritorious exhibits
in any of the above divisions, al
though not falling within the pub
lished classification. The Society
appears to have done its best to
arrange a programme to embrace
everybody and everything, and it is
to be hoped that the public will do
its part, and make the Agricultural
and Horticultural Show of 1887 an
unprecedented success.

C. W. PlLIP0 MEMORIAL SERVICE.

The service at Kawaiahao Church,
last Sunday evening, in memory of
the late G.. w. Pilipo, was largely
attended. The lower floor of the
large building was we'll filled, and
some auditors occupied the galleries
above. A good many white faces
were intermingled with the brown.
On the platform were seated the
Revs. II. II. Parker, pastor of the
church, and S. Paaluhi, Hons. S. B.
Dole and l.. A. Thurston, DIR. N. b.
Emerson, and Messrs. j. Alapai, E.
Kalauao, G. w. Kualaku, II. Water
house and j. U. Kawainui. The
Revs. j. Waiamau and S. Wal
waiole had engaged to be present
and deliver addresses, but for some
reason not given were absent.
A preamble and resolutions were
read and their adoption moved by
Mr.. j. U. Kawainui, seconded by
Hon.. $. b. Dole, of which the fol-
lowing is q copy:-
Whereas, this community and
nation have by the dispensation of
an all-wise Providence been afflicted
with the loss by death of so eminent
a citizen as George Washington Pi-
lipo of North Kona, Hawaii, who
died in Honolulu, March 25th, 1887,
and
Whereas, they recognize in him
strong and masculine character,
fearless and independent in the adj
vocacy of popular rights; gifted by
nature with noble presence and
endowed in high degree with
commanding and persuasive elo-
Quence which he ever used in the
advocacy of good government, truth
and righteousness, and
Whereas, they recognize in him
an exemplar of virtues and quail
ties of which this nation now stands
in need; and which are worthy of
imitation by men of all nationalities,
Therefore, be it
Resolved, that while we mourn
the loss sustained by the nation Of a
man, to human view, could so ill be
spared from its council chambers
and halls of legislation, we cannot
contemplate the career of Pilipo
otherwise than with admiration and
gratitude, not unmingled with
keen sympathy for the pathetic,
martyr-like spirit which marked his
endurance of the fearful malady that
overshadowed the closing months of
his life:
Resolved, that while we specially
commend to the emulation of all his
noble character and Christian faith,
we cannot refrain from expressing
the earnest hope that there may rise
up from the generation of young
men soon to enter upon the stage

this hero has recently quilted, many
who will be able and willing to take
up anew the burden where he
dropped it and to advance the cause
which was so dear to his heart.
Resolved, that this meeting desires
to express its heartfelt sympathy
with the bereaved family of the de-
ceased in their irreparable loss.
Resolved, that copies of these
resolutions be furnished TO the news
papers of this city for publication
and that copy be sent to the
family of the deceased.
Honolulu, April 3, 1887.
These resolutions were adopted
by the audience. The Rev. II. II.
Parker delivered an eloquent pane
gyric on the departed Hawaiian.
The church choir, lead by the
organ, sang several appropriate
selections during the evening.

TUESDAY. APRIL 5. 1887.
THE JURY SERVICE.

As each Term of the Supreme
Court comes round, so are there
forty-eight gentlemen selected from
the community to serve as jurors,
twenty-four of whom are native la-
waiians, and twenty-four foreigners.
The first named generally accept
their lot with good grace, and do
not seek TO find reasons to be eX-
cused. Amongst the foreigners, it
is invariably otherwise. AT the
opening proceedings of the Supreme
Court this morning when twelve of
the twenty-four were drawn for
special service on the first case, the
excuses set forth in order that they
might be exempted from service
were numerous and varied. To one
gentleman it occurred that it was
the end of the quarter, or more
properly speaking, the beginning of
new quarter, and in his opinion it
was absolutely necessary that he
should leave the Court and return
to business. Apparently it did not
occur to this gentleman that it is
always the beginning of a quarter
when the Term is held, and that all
the others who are drawn as jurors,
supposing them to be business men,
are in the same predicMnent as HIM
self. Another gentleman vent
ured an opinion that the mail
steamer from the Coast might arrive
at any moment, in which case his
absence from his business post
might cause the earth to cease re-
volving upon its axis. But the Court,
in the exercise of its duty, invaria-
bly, thinks differently from these
men of business. To excuse one
Juror on what would appear to be
plausible grounds, would result in
excusing all, and consequently a
jury could never be formed.
This morning, His Honor Mr..
Justice McCully listened attcntively
to the several pleadings of jurors,
who sought to be excused, but he
was unable to comply with their re-
quests, owing to the insuiliciency of
the reasons given. In order to fur
ther relieve the minds of gentlemen
who are drawn as jurors, Mr.. Nc
Gully stated the rules of procedure
for drawing jurors. Fifty names OF
persons eligible to serve as
such are selected by the Govern
or, from which list twenty-four
are drawn for service. The only
persons exempt from service, by
law, on a jury are the Postmaster
General and his assistant. 1t is,
however, the practice and custom of
the Court to exempt Consular
officials, Privy Councillors, and
members of the House of Mobiles,
the latter rendering gratuitous SER
vice on more important occasions.
1t has also been deemed advisable
The Daily bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Hawaii]) 1882-1895, 1887-04-05

to leave out the names of all minis
ters of the Gospel, physicians, and
dentists. So far as possible, the
drawing of two persons from the
one business establishment, is avoid
cd. The Court was unable to lay
down any special rule for cxcusing
jurors, but it endeavored to make
the jury service as little irksome as
possible.
